Day 304: Light in My Life Thank You Card

I started with the new sketch from RetroSketches. I decided to stamp the base of my card with the LIGHT IN MY LIFE sentiment and added a panel of black cardstock. I loved the Friday Mashup idea of using Black, Silver, and Gold, so I layered on a Beautiful You PML card that is gold foil embossed. I altered the card by adding stripes of Silver foil tape.

I stamped the jar and the thank you sentiment onto white cardstock, then cut them out together as one piece. I colored the candle with silvery Wink of Stella, and added gold glitter gel to the flame and as a halo around the flame by tapping it out with my fingertip. Then I popped that element up with thin 3-D foam tape. Finally, I added the light strands in White Daisy ink along the bottom of the black cardstock panel and filled them in with the same gold glitter gel.
